The renotuination of Gen. renjatn!n Harrison as the candidate of the Repub lican party for the presidency of the United States gives a sketch of hia early life and subsequent career added interest at this time. "Indiana's Favorite Son," as the president has been dubbed eince the campaign of IsSC, as every one knows is the grandson cf William Henry Har rison, who was elected to the high ollice of president in the "lo cabin and hard cider campaign" of 1S10, and whose own father was a member of the Yirginia house of burgesses when Patrick Henry made his celebrated speech in favor of tho union. The famly came of English btock, ami one of litem developed the democratic ideas of his descendants in attempting to establish a republic in Great Britain with Cromwell and hia associates. Penjaniin Harrison was born on tlie 20th of August, 13;lJ, in Worth Dcnd, In J. Hid father, Scott Hsrmon, had served in congress aud w aj one of the foremost men in the commanity in which he lived. Young Harri.-son made the most of his advantages, lie was a good student aud prepared himself both in the public school and for a w hile under a tutor to enter the Miami university, which he did at the ae of hi. lie graduated with honors two years later, and almost im mediately on leaving colieo he began the study ofthe law in the office cf Judge Iielkmy Storer in Cincinnati, and was admitted to the bar ln-fore he was '21 years of age. J ut before this period life married MissCarriel Scott, daughter of the Rev. J. tV. Scott, of OxforJ, O. Mr. Harrison moved to Indianapolis in Itwl, Lis entire fortune consisting of 5200 and his talents. Ho soon began to make headway. Being selected as a.ssistant prosecutor in a case which involved the wholesale poisoning cf persons in a hotel by the introduction of poison in the coffee, he made such a case against the prisoner as to secure a conviction. L'ver since then he has been one ofthe most prominent figures at the Indiana bar and is now acknowleced to stand at its head. In 1S(VJ he ran lor and was elected to tho position of repor ter of the supreme court cf Indiana for four years. In the duties ofthis position and in the general practice ofthe law he pifsed the time until 13.'2. Harrison did not at first conceive it his duty to go to the front, but w hen the union armies of the war of the rebellion had met with decided reverses and Oliver P. Morton said to him, "Ei-n, I went you to raise a regiment," he responded with alacrity. He did raise a regiment and w as com missioned first a lieutenant, then a cap tain and then colonel of the Seventieth Indiana regiment. His men grumbled at the severe discipline he enforced and the heavy training he pat them through but they were grateful to their colonel afterwards when they went into action. Col. Harrison's command was one of the most eilicient in the brigade. At the the battle of Resaca on May 15, IS. 1, Col. Harrison displayed tindott lied bravery and his command captured the only can non taken in ti e campaign. It was after this affair that Gen. Joe Hooker rode up to Harrison and exclaimed : , "Ben Harrison, I'll makeyou a brigadier for this day's work." lie did, for the msjor-general sent a dispatch to the secretary of war recom mending Col. Harrison for pro motion to the rank of brigadier-gereral, and giving him unstinted praise for hia fighting qualities. Gen. Harrison fought with Sherman through the Atlanta campaign and was mustered out at the close of the war with a record second to none. Gen. Harrison has been a Republican since the birth of the party. His first speeches were made in the campaign of lS-Vj. He says he was drafted into the service of the Republican party and that having refused through modesty to make a ppeech he was carried into the midst ofthe audience and compelled to declare Lis political faith, a thing not very ditli cult of accomplishment. When in ISiU Lis term as reporter of the supreme court of Indiana expired, Le made a billiant canvass ofthe state under a thirty days' leave of absence, and was re-elected by a large majority. At the expiration of bis term he was requested to become once more a candidate, but he decided to devote his whole time to the practice of the law. Thus Le spent eight years. At the end of this term he ran for the governorship, but was defeat ed though polling 2,000 more votes than the average of his ticket. In 1ST7 Gen. Harrison was prominent in bringing about a settlement cf the big railroad strikes of that year. Ia 1S0 he to took a leading part in the campaign and after the great Republican victory of V-.p'jr sir - if- ' JUjSTE 22, 1892. HARRISON. that year. Harrison was looked to as the natural representative of Indiana in the United State senate Gen. Harrison took his seat in the senate on March 4, ISsl. Though entire ly without legislative experience he quickly mastered the course of parlinien tary procedure and rapidly acijuiinted himself w ith details of the measures to come before the senate. The newly made senator accommodated himself at once to the ways of the senate, and Lis value as a working member soon becom ing apparent he was appointed on some ofthe mocit important senatorial com mittees. He served as chairman on the committee of territories; was a member of the committee on military affairs, on Indian affairs, foreign relations and on exjwnditure.s.of public money. Most of his best work was done in committee?. Makinz few long speeches, he was a constant debater, and there was scarcely a measure passed by the senate from 1SS1 to 13s7 that was not materially assisted to its final passage by Senator Harrison. Many of the laws now on the statute books bear his imrrej in their wording, and his amendments were always in the directionjof clearness and comprehensibil ity. His Dakota teport as chairman ofthe committee on territories; his speech on the KJtnunds resolution concerning civil service reform ; his speech condemning the wholesale importation of contract labor ; his speech agains the alien owner ship of largo tracts ol the national dom tin his pithy criticisms and numerous amend ments to the Blair bill for suppreting the couitnon-school edujatiou of the South ; his record on the Chinese legisla- tion, all pointed out as examples of the variety of his interests and the breadth of view which enabled Lira to compre- , , , . , .. . ,. hend legtslatton on many dtfferent !::.ts. There whittle discusston of the tariff in the senate daring Senator Harrison's term, but in the only debate that occurred he showed himself a champion of protec - tion. The bill as presented left Off the duties on plate-gl.iss. He indicated the i n tc rests of his constituents at home by offering an amendment proposing to retain the duties on fluted, rolled and rough plate-glass, and this was carried. In the fall of 1SG the legislature in Indiana w as chosen which was to elect a successor to Senator Harrison. With a view of supplanting hint the previous legislature (Democratic) Lad gerry mandered the state so that the succeed ing legislature would have a Democratic majority of 4(. on joint batlct. The result of that campaign was, as every one knows that I'aid Turpie was selected as Senator Harrison's successor in the United States senate. Since that campaign the sentiment throughout the state had been almost unanimous for the election of Gen. Har rison to a higher post than any he had yet occupied, and when the delegations werecbosed to the Chicago convention in l-vSS a wave of Harrison enthusiasm burst out over the state and the state elected a delegation that was unanimous for her "favorite son." While the conven tion was in ees.-ion Gen. Harrison uttered a remark which may be repeated in view 1 of bis reuotnination : "I have not allowed it to disturb mo in the least; I have seen too ruuch of tiie uncertainties of political life in the first place, and in the next place I have seen not a little of the cares, anxieties and worries that surround the presidency. As I have often told my friends, there was-never but one political otlice that I wanted and I wanted that because I needed it ; that was when I was a poor young lawyer, just before the bar, with a family. I really wanted then the position of reporter of the supreme court. Since then I can truthfully say that I have never sought for myself public place." It is said of Gen. Harrison's friend and neighbors that they felt a great deal more elated over his nomination than he did himself. For several days the candidate of the Republican party re ceived telegrams cf congratulation from everywhere. Among the earnest was i - - r T . ... . I I P'dln. n 1 . u - t U11U 1.U1U fuieo v, . ut.iuv, " . " "-j then in Scotland, who cabled : "I congratulate you most heartily upon the work of the national convention. Your candidacy will recall the triumph ant enthusiasm and assure the victorious conclusion which followed your grand father's nomination in 1S10. Your elec tion will sal our industial independence as the declaration of 70, which bears the honored name of your great grandfathe r, sealed our political independence." (ien. Harrison's previous training iu public life enabled him to bring to the discharge of his high duties as president a varied fund of ripe experience, lie is one of the few men ever elected to the presidency who had served a full terra of sis years ia the United SUUs senate, TT Ta CI His knowledge of men and a:T;.irs was extensive and accurate, and he surprised the country by the familiarit;- he display ed with the details of the departments and all brandies ofthe public business. His administration, were it t end even now, would into history as one of the most notal le in the commercial anna's of the country. The row UriiT law, w ith its provisions fostering the development of our industries end its Svheuie of reciprocity ia opening up markets in Cen tral and South America for millions cf dollars of agieuitural products which be fore had been supplied by Kurop", marks an ep -h in our cotinicrci.il and iuduslruU life, whilo the oprnicg of French, German, Ar.strian and ether Kurt pean ports to the admint.sion t f the American In xns a notable diplo nia'ic triumph.

And later s'.i'.i the t: .w aspired success of tlie Monetary c r-fcreuee which Secretary Foster went abroad to lur.ine end which promises to s-!ve t!; stiver jtu-toa ly intet national agreement.
